i'm sure everything you need is in the cups package. why don't you try it
and then if some things don't work, find out what exactly is missing.

BTW, most people appreciate it if you quote the relevant part(s) of the
post you're replying to. if you don't know what that means, perhaps you
might want to read <http://www.netmeister.org/news/learn2quote.html>.

that can have any of a number of causes. are you sure cups is started at
all?

iirc there are one or two cups on slackware howtos out there. google should
be able to lead you to them, or search the archives of this group, it's an
issue that comes up more often.

CUPS is shipped with Slackware... and fully functional. This is not Debian,
where you need cups, cups-devel, cups-zamooche and cups-yatahongaga to get
your printer to work.

But you do need perl, the absence of which (or so I recall) leads to the
symptom described.
